UCS pre-prep vs HABS pre-prep

[NWmumoftwo]

Hi. We are fortunate enough to receive offers from both UCS and Habs for their reception entry. My son is August born and we stay 15-20 mins car / 30 mins train from UCS but HABS is 45-60 mins away with bus pickups as early as 7.15am and drop off at 5pm. We loved both the schools but cannot make up our mind. Anyone has experience from either of these schools and any suggestions? TIA

Habs girls are only allowed to use the bus from age 7 ( unless it’s changed). Think about the drive to and from Habs if you will have to do it and how long it will take to get home after drop off the f you have to do it. DS did very well at UCS

Habs is now offering the coach service from reception. The little Habs coach is a dedicated coach for student from reception to year 3.

Thanks @Lapmum123 . If you have used it for reception kid, how was your experience? I am exploring all the possibilities at this moment before taking a decision.

We used it a couple of times and it was fine with minor hiccups (tracking wasn't working, road works effected the timing). But at least the option is there. Commute wise they all have pros and cons. Any questions please feel free to message me.
